DALLAS, July 8 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. Preventive Medicine,
(http://www.USPreventiveMedicine.com) the leader in disease prevention, today
applauded the Centers for Disease Control for its campaign to make the
United States a healthier nation. The company also commended the American
Academy of Pediatrics, which this week called for children to be screened
for cholesterol.

The CDC has launched the "Healthiest Nation Campaign," a program aimed
at placing more emphasis on health promotion. Speaking at a conference in
Washington, D.C., Julie Gerberding, director of the CDC, said the United
States places way too much emphasis on treating diseases rather than
protecting health in the first place.

"We applaud the CDC and its campaign to shift the emphasis in our
country from treating diseases to investing in disease prevention programs
that truly make a difference," said Christopher T. Fey, CEO and Chairman of
U.S. Preventive Medicine. "The more steps that business and community
leaders take to promote healthier communities and workplaces, the quicker
individuals will develop new and healthier in their daily living
activities."

U.S. Preventive Medicine also commended the American Academy of
Pediatrics which this week issued a series of recommendations including one
that pediatricians routinely check the cholesterol level of children with a
family history of heart disease.

"There is a general wake-up call for cholesterol screening in this
country and we fully support the idea that children should be screened for
cholesterol, especially since most children and teenagers are currently not
getting screened. Doing so will not only help to identify potential health
risks but also will allow for appropriate lifestyle, nutrition and exercise
regimens to be applied. As the leader in disease prevention, we commend the
Association for raising awareness of the need to screen children for
cholesterol," said Fey.

Frederic Goldstein, President and COO of U.S. Preventive Medicine,
added: "Childhood obesity is not just a threat to the child who has the
condition, but it is also a threat to our economy. Obesity has a profound
impact on our nation's growing medical costs, and ultimately as these
children join the workforce, their obesity has a negative impact on
productivity. If we are to remain competitive in this global economy, we
must take prevention seriously and reduce the incidence of entirely
preventable health conditions."
